Erik Skaden and Mike Wolfe Share USATF 100-mile Championship at Tahoe Rim Trail 100
Posted by ai at 10:18 AMMike Wolfe (Missoula, MT) and Erik Skaden (Folsom, CA) worked together in the last 25 miles of the Tahoe Rim Trail 100m to share the 2008 USATF 100m Championship in 18:59, while Nikki Kimball took the Women's title in 20:18. The official results haven't been posted, but you can read about it here. It sounds like Jon Olsen set the pace for the first half (sub-8 hours!), but then had to drop around mile 60 (damn that Red House Loop!). Nikki Kimball battled it out with Beverly Anderson-Abbs for the first half, despite Bev nursing a leg injury. Kimball drove hard to the finish, while Bev hung on for second place and winning the Womens Masters division.
In the 50-mile, Thomas Reiss defended his title in a course-record 7:52:19 to best former winner Jeff Kozak and become the Nevada State 50-Mile Champion.
I will post the results as soon as they are up. In the meantime, congratulations to everyone!
